Better Place Electric Car visitor centre opens

Better Place have opened a visitor centre in Israel to demonstrate their battery swap technology for electric cars Last October we wrote about a start-up company in Israel – Better Place – that had a new way forward for electric cars by taking the purchase of battery packs out of the equation, and was developing a system for ‘Battery Swap’ stations where electric car owners could drive in and swap their battery pack for a fully-charged one in a few minutes. That story first brought to our attention our favourite quote of last year – by Nissan boss Carlos Ghosn – who said “A hybrid is like a mermaid: if you want a fish, you get a woman; if you want a woman, you get a fish.” Which probably explained why Nissan – and its partner Renault – got involved with Better Place. Better Place aims to address the main concerns of electric car drivers by making the battery packs in electric cars ‘swappable’.

Peugeot 4007 Sport XS launched

The Peugeot 4007 Sport XS - Peugeot's PSA 4x4 - has been launched today There are some plus points, however. It has pretty good off-road ability (thanks to the input of Mitsubishi, no doubt), not that many owners ever go off road. It has a pretty decent, supple ride and the 2.2 litre HDI engine is a good unit.
